4. This poster is available in PDF.PDF You think it is rough going to school? You have problems that seem too big to handle? Talk to a teacher or guidance counselor - they can help. Don't get me wrong - some people do drop out of school and are successful - but do you think you can beat the odds? You want to work 50+ hours a week to make what a high school graduate makes in 40 hours?
